Health and Safety Information 240

Do not use incompatible cell phone batteries and chargers. Some Web sites

and second-hand dealers, not associated with reputable manufacturers
and carriers, might be selling incompatible or even counterfeit batteries
and chargers. Consumers should purchase manufacturer or carrier
recommended products and accessories. If unsure about whether a
replacement battery or charger is compatible, contact the manufacturer of
the battery or charger.

Misuse or use of incompatible phones, batteries, and charging devices

could result in damage to the equipment and a possible risk of fire,
explosion, leakage serious injuries, damage to your phone, or other serious
hazard.

Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of your battery: it

may require cooling or warming first.

Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, (below 0 °C (32 °F) or over 45

°C (113 °F) such as in a car in summer or winter conditions, as you will
reduce the charging capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep
the battery at room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold battery may
temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged. Li-ion
batteries are particularly affected by temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).

Do not place the battery in, on or near areas that may get very hot, such as

on or near a microwave oven, cooking surface, cooking appliance, iron, or
radiator. Batteries may explode when overheated.

Do not get your phone or battery wet. Even though they will dry and appear

to operate normally, the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety
hazard.
